Then he has what he describes as his main channel, which has 2.1 million followers, on which he rarely posts. He explained: “My main TikTok, I’ve made £637.”
Admitting that he hasn’t posted a huge number of videos, he did note that one recent clip had garnered a whopping 19 million views, with others racking up huge numbers as well.

Fury beat KSI by a controversial majority decision, but the YouTube sensation, against whom he was a favorite, took him to the end.
‘Yeah“Sidemen man, say what you want about your partner KSI losing,” he said on Instagram.
But don’t mention my daughter’s name or mine again and you’ll have a problem. Keep my son’s name out of your mouth.
KSI then defended his friend Sidemen with a tweet designed to invoke fury. ‘Bambi,’ he wrote on X, responding to Fury’s video.
Minter has previously spoken about what it means to be a companion.
Speaking previously in a video, Minter said: “A chaperone is basically someone’s motherfucker who just follows them around… I was basically JJ’s motherfucker who followed them everywhere.”
